Summary
Published Date: July 24, 2024
This fact sheet uses statewide population–level data to describe the financial worries experienced by California adults who have needs for Long-Term Services and Supports (LTSS) and to assess the extent of these worries by race or ethnicity and by employment status. Data were obtained from the 2019–2020 California Long-Term Services and Supports (CA-LTSS) study, a follow-on survey of the 2019–2020 California Health Interview Survey (CHIS).
Findings: The experience of financial worries among California adults who have LTSS needs varies depending on race or ethnicity and employment status. Having financial worries among this group has implications for health outcomes. Among adults with LTSS needs, lower income is associated with poorer health outcomes.
